Furthermore, DWN reports that on April
25th, the U.S. President will hold a “summit meeting” in Hannover
Germany with the leaders of Germany (Angela Merkel), Italy (Matteo
Renzi), France (Francois Hollande), and Britain (David Cameron). The
presumed objective of this meeting is to establish in NATO’s countries
bordering on Russia, a military force of all five countries that are
headed by these leaders, a force threatening Russia with an invasion, if
NATO subsequently decides that the ‘threat from Russia’ be ‘responded
to’ militarily.

NATO’s surrounding Russia with hostile forces is supposedly defensive against Russia — not
an offensive operation. During the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, America’s
President JFK didn’t consider Soviet dictator Nikita Khrushchev’s plan
to base nuclear missiles in Cuba to be ‘defensive’ on the USSR’s part —
and neither does Russia’s President Vladimir Putin consider America’s
far bigger operation, of surrounding Russia with such weapons, to
be ‘defensive’ and not offensive. The U.S. Government, and NATO, act as
if Russia is surrounding them, instead of them surrounding Russia — and
their ‘news’ media transmit this lie as if it should be taken
seriously, not as its being a lie; but, in actual fact, NATO has already expanded right up to Russia’s western borders.

Right after Crimeans voted overwhelmingly
to rejoin Russia, Obama slapped sanctions against Russia (even though
Western-sponsored polls in Crimea, both before and after the coup, had
shown higher than 90% support by Crimeans for rejoining with Russia), and nuclear weapons were prepared, both on the U.S.-EU side and on the Russian side, for a possible nuclear war.

This is no mere restoration of the Cold
War (which was based upon the capitalist-communist ideological
disagreement); it’s instead getting forces into position for a possible
invasion of Russia, pure-and-simple — raw conquest — though no major
news-media in the West are reporting it as being such.

That preparation doesn’t necessarily mean
a nuclear war will result. Russia might accept whatever the demands of
‘the West’ are, and thus lose its national sovereignty. Otherwise, ‘the
West’ (the U.S.leadership, and the leaderships in its allied countries)
might quit their evermore-ominous threats, and simply withdraw from
Russia’s borders, if Russia stands-its-ground and refuses to yield up
its national sovereignty.

Back in January, Russian President Vladimir Putin called-out American President Barack Obama on Obama’s big lie, that
America’s “ABM” weapons to disable in-flight nuclear missiles were
being installed in Europe in order to protect Europe against Iranian
nuclear missiles, but now the U.S. acknowledges that Iran doesn’t have,
and won’t have, any nuclear missiles, and yet Obama is stepping up
(instead of ending) those ABM installations — even though the alleged anti-Iranian reason for them is gone. The only actual reason they have been installed, Putin argues, is in order to enable a blitz nuclear attack against Russia, which will include disabling Russia’s retaliatory capacity.

Any in-depth news-report about Obama’s
organizing for a possible invasion of Russia, needs to deal, therefore,
with the key question: What basis of ‘the West’s’ aggressive actions
threatening Russia’s national security is there, other than such lies by ‘the West’? And, if there is no honest answer to it, then the only rational response by Western publics, to what Obama and his foreign allies are doing, is to recognize what is actually happening and to take action against their own leaders, before this increasingly high-stakes confrontation
— of no benefit but only extremely high costs, to publics around the
world — becomes terminal. In that instance, Western publics need to
defend themselves against their own nation’s leaders. This is a
situation that is frequently encountered in dictatorships.

The key questions are not being asked in
the Western press; they are being ignored by it. Unless these questions
are publicly dealt with — and soon — the answer, to them all, could well
be terminal. Consequently, any ‘news’ medium that fails to
address them is less than worthless; it is sheer propaganda that merely
parades in the mask of being a ‘news medium’: the potentially terminal
questions are then being ignored, and lies are promoted instead, which
distract the public from the most urgent public-affairs issue of them
all, in our era, not draw the public’s attention to that overriding
international-affairs issue.

The closer that things are getting to a
nuclear war, the more difficult becomes either side’s backing down from
it — and this is especially the case with the aggressor (most especially
when it falsely claims that it is being aggressed-against, and this is the reason why the lies urgently need to be exposed).
